Planes or Volcano
-
Relative to if there was no eruption there is less CO2 being emitted (according to this graphic anyway), so im not really sure what the problem/point is?
-
Volcanoes are better for the environment? I think this graphic is similar to some of the petrochemical industry advertisements in the states on how "green" they are with their new efficiencies and fuels. It's misdirection, showing you how "good" something is when in reality, it's still bad. E.g. "green" fuels are still burning petrochemicals, a volcano still spews CO2 (and a whole host of other things that are bad for the atmosphere).
An old saying: There are lies, damn lies, and statistics.

It is indeed bad, but its an improvement on what the situation would normally be. Cant really see why thats a bad thing in itself.

Overheard at the local Bar.
My wife is stranded in Moscow! Can someone assure me that there will be no flights for a few more days. It is so peaceful here.

I was 'stuck' in Spain for the past week but it looks like Ryanair will be paying for accommodation and meals ..... although I won't hold my breath

Have you managed to get back to Ireland, Mike?
(And how come you get paid by Ryanair for living in your own apartment in Spain?)

Greetings from Mockba. All is good. Saw the Kremlin and Red Square. Then it's on to St Pete tomorrow. Then on to Paris. Great reunion with my Son. Having a blast. NO ash residue.
Talk to you guys when I get back.
